Guest Post - Jenny Hale's Dream Christmas - #BookoutureXmas

After reading Christmas Wishes and Mistletoe Kisses, I had to ask Jenny, "Since Nick has loads of money, I would love to know what Jenny's dream Christmas would be if money was no object. "I''d start out by getting a sitter for my kids in the afternoon before Christmas Eve. (She'd be the best sitter--so much fun they'd cry when she left.) Then, I'd find a romantic restaurant, dripping with Christmas decorations and candles and I'd have a nice, early dinner and drinks with my husband. (Since Thanksgiving is so close to Christmas, our family doesn't have a big Christmas dinner per se, so an evening out for two would be a big deal.) After dinner, we'd come home to a perfectly clean house with two sleeping children, and we'd arrange Santa's loot. Our children would magically sleep in and we'd all get up around 8 a.m. to open gifts. Then, we'd board a plane for somewhere exciting--maybe a ski resort or a big city--and we'd spend the next few days travelling as a family. (And, of course, the sitter would tag along to keep everything in order while I carried my coffee, bless her.)
Thanks Jenny for answering my question. My review of Christmas Kisses and Mistletoe Wishes can be found here

An uplifting, beautiful story about never letting go of your dreams, the special magic of a family Christmas… and the rush of falling in love under the mistletoe.

Single mother Abbey Fuller loves her family more than anything, and doesn’t regret for a moment having had to put her dreams of being an interior designer on hold. But with her son, Max, growing up, when a friend recommends her for a small design job she jumps at the chance. How hard can it be?

Nick Sinclair needs his house decorated in time for his family’s festive visit – and money is no object. What he doesn’t need is to be distracted from his multi-million dollar business – even if it is Christmas.

When Abbey pulls up to the huge Sinclair mansion, she has a feeling she might be out of her depth. And when she meets the gorgeous, brooding Nicholas Sinclair, she knows that she’s in real trouble…

With the snow falling all around, can Abbey take the chance to make her dreams of being a designer come true? And can she help Nick to finally enjoy the magic of Christmas?

About Jenny Hale

When she graduated college, one of Jenny’s friends said “Look out for this one; she’s going to be an author one day”. Despite being an avid reader and a natural storyteller, it wasn’t until that very moment that the idea of writing novels occurred to her.Sometimes our friends can see the things that we can’t. Whilst she didn’t start straight away, that comment sowed a seed and several years, two children and hundreds of thousands of words later, Jenny finished her first novel – Coming Home for Christmas – which became an instant bestseller.
